BURGETTSTOWN, Pa. (KDKA) -- The KISS concert Thursday night at The Pavilion at Star Lake has been postponed, according to a statement on the band's website.
In a post on Twitter, the band said Paul Stanley has tested positive for COVID-19. The statement goes on to say that more information will be available soon about future show dates.
"Everyone on the entire tour, both band and crew, are fully vaccinated. The band and their crew have operated in a bubble independently to safeguard everyone as much as possible at each show and in between shows. The tour also has a COVID safety protocol officer on staff full-time that is ensuring everyone is closely following all CDC guidelines," the band said.
Stanley took to Twitter after the news to post a statement.
"PEOPLE!!! I am fine! I am not in ICU! My heart allows me to do 26 miles a day on my bike! I don't know where this came from but it's absolute nonsense."
"A Full Press Release Will Be Issued Shortly about upcoming KISS shows. I had been sick with flu-like symptoms and was tested repeatedly and was negative. As of late this afternoon I tested positive. The crew, staff and band have all tested negative once again. More to follow," he said in a follow-up tweet.
The Pavilion at Star Lake's Facebook page said the show was set to begin at 7:30 p.m.
Earlier on Thursday, KISS' official Twitter account posted about tonight's show.
"BURGETTSTOWN, PA! Tonight's YOUR Night! We are BRINGIN' it! SO GET CRAZY!!!"
